Abstract: A liquid crystal display device includes a liquid crystal cell, polarizers, a first retardation plate arranged between the liquid crystal cell and the first polarizer, and a second retardation plate arranged between the liquid crystal cell and the second polarizer. Each retardation plate has an optical axis in a plane parallel to the substrate surface and a retardation of substantially lambda/4. The optical axis of one retardation plate is perpendicular to the optical axis of the other. The polarizing axes of the polarizers are arranged at an angle of 45° with respect to the optical axes of the retardation plates. The liquid crystal cell is arranged such that a state of alignment of liquid crystal molecules changes, accompanying a change in a polar angle and/or change in an azimuth, upon application of a voltage.

Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To reduce the number of processes of alignment processing in a liquid crystal display element where a plurality of domains having different alignment directions of liquid crystal molecules are formed in the case of driving. SOLUTION: The left half of a pixel electrode 14 provided on an active substrate 11 is deviated to some degree upward with respect to a counter electrode 17 extending in the right and left directions of an counter substrate 12. The right half of the pixel electrode 14 is deviated to some degree downward with respect to the counter electrode 17. Between vertical alignment films respectively provided on the mutually opposing surfaces of both of the substrates 11 and 12, an n-liquid crystal whose dielectric anisotropy is negative is sealed.  When an electric field is applied between both of the electrodes 14 and 17, liquid crystal molecules in an area corresponding to the left half of the pixel electrode 14 are tilted in a direction shown by an arrow B due to the deviation and the liquid crystal molecules in an area corresponding to the right half of the pixel electrode 14 are tilted in a direction shown by an arrow C on the contrary to it. In this case, it is not required to perform rubbing processing to the vertical alignment film.

Abstract: The invention relates to a liquid crystal display device used for a display part of an information equipment and a driving method thereof, and has an object to provide a liquid crystal display device in which excellent viewing angle characteristics can be obtained and a driving method thereof. When a relatively high level data voltage is applied to a gate electrode of a TFT, a driving voltage is applied to a liquid crystal layer for a long time and a white display is realized. When a relatively low level data voltage is applied to the gate electrode of the TFT, the driving voltage is not applied to the liquid crystal layer, and a black display is realized. When an intermediate data voltage between the high level and the low level is applied to the gate electrode of the TFT, the TFT keeps an on state for a time determined by a time constant depending on a capacitance and a resistance. The driving voltage is applied to the liquid crystal layer for the on time. By this, a half tone display is realized according to the ratio of the on time of the TFT in one frame period.

The graphitic supports allow to avoid the known pre-treatments and post-treatments needed in the case of supports obtained by partial graphitisation of active carbons and during use they are affected negligibly by the methanation shown by the supports obtained from active carbons. Furthermore, the catalysts of the present invention are characterised by a very high activity, even with ruthenium loadings well below the known loading.

Abstract: It is judged whether a marking unit formed on a material becomes a bright mark or a dark mark. Based on this judgment, for the work W of a material in which the marking unit becomes a bright mark, the code symbol of the 2-dimensional code of the original image is bright/dark-reversed to generate a reversed code symbol 1R. By doing this, a laser marker 10 is controlled so as to apply a laser beam to the cell of the background portion without applying the laser beam on the cell of the code portion. On the other hand, in the case of the normal material in which the marking unit becomes a dark mark, the laser marker 10 is controlled to apply the laser beam to the cell of the code portion without applying the beam to the cell of the background portion.
